We wish to test if a certain vaccine developed for a
disease is effective or not. What is the best way to do
this?

A
Vaccinate 100 animals
and expose all 100 to the
disease.
B
Vaccinate 100 animals
and expose 50 of them to
the disease.

C
Vaccinate 50 animals, do
not vaccinate 50 other
animals, and expose all
100 to the disease.

D
Vaccinate 50 animals, do
not vaccinate 50 other
animals, and expose the
vaccinated animals to the
disease.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The best way to test the effectiveness of a vaccine against a disease is vaccinate 50 animals, do  not vaccinate 50 other  animals, and expose all  100 to the disease (option C).

Explanation:

When testing a vaccine for effectiveness, the option is to administer the vaccine to half of the population exposed to a disease, since effectiveness should measure the performance of the vaccine within a community.

If there are 100 animals exposed to a disease, the fact that the 50 vaccinated animals do not get sick is an excellent test of how the vaccine works and what its effectiveness is.

The other 50 animals, not vaccinated, would act as a control group exposed to the same disease and sharing a certain space.

The other options are not correct because:

    A. Vaccinating the 100 exposed animals does not provide an unvaccinated control group to compare the effects of the vaccine.

    B. Vaccinating all 100 animals and exposing only 50 to the disease does not make sense, since it would not be possible to measure effectiveness in vaccinated animals that are not exposed.

    D. Vaccinating 50 animals and not vaccinating the other 50 to expose only the vaccinated animals to the disease does not make sense since the conditions of the test group and the control group should be the same.

Active transport moves molecules_____their concentration gradient

Answers

During active transport, molecules move from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. This is the opposite of diffusion, and these molecules are said to flow against their concentration gradient. Active transport is called "active" because this type of transport requires energy to move molecules.:)

Imagine that y-axis of each graph describes the rate of photosynthesis. Which of the graphs represents the
effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis?
a. A
b. B
c. C
d. D

Answers

Answer:

a. A describes the effect of light intensity on photosynthesis.

Explanation:

In plants and other primary producers, photosynthesis is a biological mechanism that is vital to energy production. Energy-containing carbohydrates are derived from light, water and carbon dioxide in the form of glucose molecules.

The waste product oxygen is released as a result. Photosynthesis depends on many variables, including:

carbon dioxide concentration, ambient temperature and light intensity

It is a rate-limited reaction. Since photons or particles of light provide the energy required for the reaction, high intensities of light increase the photosynthetic rate. From the graph shown, as the intensity increases steadily, so does the rate- but at too high of an intensity, it ceases to affect the rate of photosynthesis, which becomes constant or plateaus.

Beyond this point, either the supply of carbon dioxide or the temperature limits the reaction. For instance, at high intensities tissues may even be damaged by high temperatures or heat.

you may have read about alkaline diets that claim that you need to only eat alkaline foods in order to remain healthy according to this philosophy eating acidic Foods acidifies the blood leading to disease but our blood has several buffer systems in place explain what happens when buffers encounter additional hydrogen ions from foods will the pH of the blood decrease

Answers

Answer:

Mechanisms are activated where it is sought to lower the amount of free protons in the blood, that is, to reduce acidity, these mechanisms work between two large systems, the receptor system, the respiratory system and the renal system.

Explanation:

When a metabolic acidosis is entered, either by a food, or by a disease or even an intense physical activity, the lungs seek to generate hyperventilation, to increase the concentrations of oxygen in plasma and absolutely decrease the carbon dioxide concentration, thus not the blood becomes even more acidic.

On the other hand, the digestive system together with the sensory system, will warn this proprioception of the acidity of the plasma and will promote the dilution of these acids with a solvent, which is water, promoting the sensation of thirst.

Finally, the kidneys will seek to retain all the alkaline solutes to neutralize the physiological internal pH, and will release through the urine and the channels of acidic compounds, the products or acid metabolites to the external environment, that is, acid urine excretion.
